The pellets you are looking at have a sabot system on them. If the pellet complete with sabot are no bigger that .177 caliber and the length of the round is no longer than that of a regular pellet, I don't see why not. The Daisy 008 uses a revolving clip and if your pellets fit in flush in this clip, it should be theoretically good to go.Here is the link to this revolving clip: Daisy Clips for Powerline 008 Pistol, 3 pack

Wish I could help you. I've only used the BB's and pellets that came with the kit and they've worked well for my needs.

I like the rounded or pointed pellets. I've never used hollow pointed; I've heard they aren't very accurate. I just use the cheap crossman pointed

That will depend entirely on the weight of the pellet. The gun is rated at 1650 fps with lightweight PBA ammo. I would not recommend using that as it can damage the gun internally. I would go for something 10 grains or heavier, that should bring the velocity down into a more acceptable and more accurate range. Thanks Pyramyd Air Team

This is what we shoot and they work really well.Crosman Biodegradable AirSoft BBs (5000 .20G 6mm, White BBs)

couldn't have said it better myself. Basically, at the end of the day, 22 caliber pellets are usually slower than 177 pellets. However, they most always pack a bigger Punch. So for bigger game targets, you'd want a bigger pellet.

I used the steel BB's from daisy and they are fairly accurate. If you want Maximum accuracy I would use pellets. I have no clue why you would need the ft lb of energy but you could probably calculate that by knowing the FPS(650-700 at 10 pumps) and the mass of the pellets/ BB's. I've noticed the accuracy depends a lot on how many pumps you use and the weather condition more than the pellets/BB's. For the price you can't go wrong.

A .177 BB is actually smaller in diameter than a .177 pellet so there will be a poor seal and the BB will not engage the rifling, If you are intend on shooting round balls out of the rifle go with Gamo round lead pellets, They are the right diameter and engage the rifling but don't expect excellent accuracy out of them, However they should have excellent penetration.It's never a good idea to shoot steel BB's out of rifled guns since they mess up the rifling.

Yes it does matter what kind of BBs are needed for this gun. Only plastic 6mm .20gram -6mm .25 BBs can be used with this gun it's an airsoft gun not a real BB Gun I had the same problem.

What caliber are you shooting? Don't know the FPS of my pellets, but I shoot a .177 Benjamin Marauder PCP Air rifle (stock, not enhanced) at my littls spinner target. It's about 25 yds away and I'm shooting JSB Diabolo EXACT .177 Caliber Air Gun Pellets - 8.44 gr pellets. These pellts spin and reset the target just fine. Now, I also have the larger spinning target, .made for 22 cal. These .177 pellets won't spin those bigger paddles. And my .22 and .25 Marauders spin the large target paddle and spin the small target paddles like crazy, but I don't know how long the little spinning paddles would last with the bigger pellets striking them - so I only shoot my .177 at the smaller spinner. But like I said, my .177 can spin the small paddles all day long. Hope this helps. Bobby

5.97 mm is the same as using 6 mm. Just make sure they are good quality BBS and you will have no problems. Velocity is closely related to weight so can't estimate the FPS without knowing the mass of your 5.97 mm BBs. Try googling the differences and you will find many resources available to explain.

I have had the best luck with the jsb exact diablo 8.4gr as far as power and accuracy goes. I have a umarex octaine .177 that I have found to be very picky with pellets. Yours may differ...For what it's worth I would recommend trying a few different different brands and weights to see what shoots best for you

The .12 gram BBs are too light for this airsoft pistol. They split apart before they exit from the barrel, potentially causing the pistol to jam. You need to use the .20 gram ones instead. This pistol has a muzzle velocity of 500 fps. Very high for an air pistol. That's why the lighter BBs break apart and are not suitable in this case

Hello, Each gun will shoot a little different. It will also depend on what BB you are using. We tested our guns using a high grade BB and the gun is shooting at around 310 to 330 FPS. Please remember that each gun will shoot a little different.Thank you,True Edge Airsoft

Not good those plastic balls an steel bbs will bounce back at you. Should only shoot lead pellets at STEEL TARGETS . Id say no closer then 20 yards. Then wear safety glasses your eyes are very important

no, this particular rifle can only shoot .177 pellets. It doesn't shoot bb's. It's a break barrel rifle with a rifled barrel, the metal bb's would destroy the rifling inside the barrel so I wouldn't even recommend putting anything other than lead pellets inside it. Some models of Crosman and most of the Daisy line of rifles that are pump (and have lower fps ratings) can use both metal bb's and pellets. Examples are the Crosman 760, Crosman m4-177. Daisy, 901, Daisy 880. It should specifically say both bb's and pellets can be used in the rifle in the ad. I would recommend the Daisy 880 or 901 as they have higher fps than other dual ammo rifles. (750fps for bb's, 715 fps for pellets). You won't be able to find one that shoots both that fire at 1000 fps- for that, you'd have to go with a pellet only rifle like the Crosman Phantom. Hope this helps.

I use them in my Nitro Venom Dusk and they have great penetration power and they are very accurate to 50 yards. I have not found an occasion to test them at a greater distance. If you have the need for a high velocity pellet I see no reason that they would not serve you well, at least in the 22 cal version. I can't speak to the 177 cal version as I have not used them. Hope this helps. good hunting.
